I'll be driving mine and stopping at every stop for fuel :-p Shouldn't cost too much. When I took the commodore it cost 650 round trip sitting on 120 there and back, thrashing around hidden valley for 2 days, then cruising darwin for a week after. Had 2 trips of 20km each where 240km/h was required to get items to keep the old chevy going too.

Not jealous craig. Mine is a freak too, What kind of a bitch gets about with cracked skirts and your ass hanging out.

Your car will be fine bro. Every car gets hot on trips lol. Plus, we drove to Jim's place at 42 degree day.

I went to adelaide and back for $430 both times and i make around 500-550 per tank at 110kph, but stopped 4 times for breaks and easy re-fills. And thats the same distance to Darwin.

You'll be sweet as if you go and you wont over heat lol! dont be soft lol :), and thats wicked you'll have an extra 500 to save or spend :)

Wont need a trailer man, if kurt's can do it and his blows fuel out the window you surly can.

Kurt: Mine is a freak too, What kind of a bitch gets about with cracked skirts and your ass hanging out <--- I dont get it haha?

Hi Fab

Sorry couldn't make it to your place to inspect motor. I'm on call and getting reamed this week.

Was going to go to power cruise but taking my R33 to Super Lap at Oran Park at the end of March. Going in Club sprint class and I'm driving the V-spec there and back. Really want to put the white car on the circuit properly (flat out) which power cruise is not. Getting retune at CRD also while over there just to optimise tune further.

Blue car's third gearbox arrived today too. Brand new OS Giken 5 speed and OS R3C clutch.

but man after that drive 2 jims place my car was hot as . dunno if a huge drive to darwin would be good 4 it unless i changed the radiator fluid with flash ultra coolin shit and bought a bag o ice at every stop 2 lol

What's wrong with your car then ?

My current tune I sit on 140 km/h all the way to Darwin/Adelaide and back and costs me around $650 -$700 return easily. Sits on around 78deg.C and I have a stock radiator and cap. Unless you've got a blockage in radiator or stuffed thermostat it shouldn't do that. Man, I drove from Melbourne to Adelaide in the WRX without ANY fans at all (they are thermos only in WRX), just the air blowing through the front at 100km/h and it didn't heat above normal temperature. I'd get it checked.

Well if I put some wider tyres on the back and stop getting on the throttle so hard then having it's ass out won't be a problem.

Lol, I'd like to know where the suposed 15k spent on the car is. Maybe he's adding in the cost the insurance company paid out to repair it when he had that "sneezing fit" and crashed it?

Is that Greg the F-wit who bought my old GT4 ? Looks like it from the photos - that car cost me $16000 then he tried to sue me after crashing it!

How could he sue you cause he can't drive?

It'd be lucky to be pushing 170kw atw after all it's been through. He should race it next drag meet and show us then

Was looking at tyres, can get a full set of 255/40 R17 for rear and 225/45R17 for the front here including freight for $545. Choice of Michellin pilot sport, continental conti 2 or bridgestone potenza re blah blah blah

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
